Well due to a rather sad and large argument going on between me and someone else I have officially decided that I know too many people named "Jenny" or Jennifer, Jen, Jenni, or anything else related to the root (Jen).
Do you know too many people with the same name?
Oh if this isn't the right forum to put this in sorry.
 
The most I have is two friends named Phil.

Something that is pretty confusing is that I know three people named Katie, Kaleigh (Kaylee), and Kelli.
Just say it out loud.
 
offhand I can think of two Katy's, and probably 2 or 3 Katie's. I'm one of two Justins at work, and in high school I was almost never the only Justin (or Dustin!) in a given class. Also for some reason the other Justin would invariably get in trouble a lot, so out of nowhere I'd get startled by a loud "Justin!"
 
There are a lot of Johns, Dave's, and a couple of Susan's in my family. It does get confusing when talking about them individually. I also had about 3 - 4 Sarah's in my class. Two speeled Sara and the other one Sarah. I think briefly there was another Sara, but I'm not entirely sure. That got a little confusing. At camp once, there was another girl with my name and spelled the same. She didn't mind the more common nickname while I hated it. People kept insisting on calling me by the nickname I didn't like and her by her given name. That ticked me off.
 
I have two uncles named Victor (plus a baby cousin), two cousins named Carlos, two uncles named Carlos, an uncle named Melchor, another uncle named Miguel, a cousin who is named Miguel Melchor, two cousins named Diana, two cousins named Valerie, three aunts named Marisol, two aunts named Carmen, an uncle named Fernando with his daughter named Fernanda, my dad and brother both named Cesar, two Mirnas, and an uncle and a grandpa who both share the name Jesus.

Yeah, I'd say I know too many people with the same name.
 
I know 4 David's, 3 John's, 4 Robert's, 4 Bob's.

The thing that I find most puzzling is that I work with 8 people with the last name of Brown but they are not reallated in any way. Thats the running gag around here.
 
It's not quite the same, but I have a pandemic of Marie middle names. So far:

my sister, cousin (Kami Marie), girlfriend, good friend/ex girlfriend, Lisa Marie Presley (ok so I don't know her, but still)...
 
My wife's side of the family is like that with first names starting with K.
Karrie my wife
Kristopher my son
Kimmie my sister-in-law
Karol my mother-in-law
Kimberly my father-in-law
Nobody seems to know why or how they all ended up that way but I smell a rat.
 
MY grandfather and two uncles named John, my fatherand three of my brothers are named bobby. You all think Jen is repeated a lot ? Try Crystal at one time there where eight in a school of like 350, there where like 4 different ways to spell it but, say it loud in the hall and all eight would turn their heads.
 
I haven't met any down here in South Jersey, but I've met other Mentors. I think one kid was named after me. His father used to come over to my house when we were kids. Poor kid.
 
in my friend "circle" or is it called circle of friends..? Oh anyways there are about 3-4 that don't have a name that someone else has/sounds like in the group. :happysad:


Anna - Hanna - Johanna - Nanna/sanna(me)
Jenna - Jenny - Jennifer
Johan(s) - Johan(b) - juha - juha :happysad:

And in the school there are atleast 3 Emilias, Jennys, Annas, etc :happysad: talk about being immaginitive(Sp?)
